Accepts a dictionary, ``groups``, in which each key is a new column name and each value is a list of old column names that will be "melted" under the new column name as part of the reshape. Parameters ---------- data : DataFrame The wide-format DataFrame. groups : dict {new_name : list_of_columns}. dropna : bool, default True Do not include columns whose entries are all NaN. Returns ------- DataFrame Reshaped DataFrame. See Also -------- melt : Unpivot a DataFrame from wide to long format, optionally leaving identifiers set. pivot : Create a spreadsheet-style pivot table as a DataFrame.

[docs]def wide_to_long( df: DataFrame, stubnames, i, j, sep: str = "", suffix: str = r"\d+" ) -> DataFrame: r""" Unpivot a DataFrame from wide to long format. Less flexible but more user-friendly than melt. With stubnames ['A', 'B'], this function expects to find one or more group of columns with format A-suffix1, A-suffix2,..., B-suffix1, B-suffix2,... You specify what you want to call this suffix in the resulting long format with `j` (for example `j='year'`) Each row of these wide variables are assumed to be uniquely identified by `i` (can be a single column name or a list of column names) All remaining variables in the data frame are left intact. Parameters ---------- df : DataFrame The wide-format DataFrame. stubnames : str or list-like The stub name(s). The wide format variables are assumed to start with the stub names. i : str or list-like Column(s) to use as id variable(s). j : str The name of the sub-observation variable. What you wish to name your suffix in the long format. sep : str, default "" A character indicating the separation of the variable names in the wide format, to be stripped from the names in the long format. For example, if your column names are A-suffix1, A-suffix2, you can strip the hyphen by specifying `sep='-'`. suffix : str, default '\\d+' A regular expression capturing the wanted suffixes. '\\d+' captures numeric suffixes. Suffixes with no numbers could be specified with the negated character class '\\D+'. You can also further disambiguate suffixes, for example, if your wide variables are of the form A-one, B-two,.., and you have an unrelated column A-rating, you can ignore the last one by specifying `suffix='(!?one|two)'`. When all suffixes are numeric, they are cast to int64/float64. Returns ------- DataFrame A DataFrame that contains each stub name as a variable, with new index (i, j). See Also -------- melt : Unpivot a DataFrame from wide to long format, optionally leaving identifiers set. pivot : Create a spreadsheet-style pivot table as a DataFrame. DataFrame.pivot : Pivot without aggregation that can handle non-numeric data. DataFrame.pivot_table : Generalization of pivot that can handle duplicate values for one index/column pair. DataFrame.unstack : Pivot based on the index values instead of a column. Notes ----- All extra variables are left untouched. This simply uses `pandas.melt` under the hood, but is hard-coded to "do the right thing" in a typical case.
